Chapter 46: Cheap and Bad Things (2/2)



After Tao Chunying struggled out of Old Lady Huang's hands, she found that her brother and sister-in-law had disappeared without a trace.

Old Mrs. Huang glanced at her coldly and turned away.

Tao Chunqi stomped her feet in anger. People around her were talking about it, and she felt like her face was being rubbed on the ground.

When she was about to leave, the owner of the teahouse stopped her and asked her to pay the bill.

The total amount was one tael and one penny of silver.

Tao Chunyi was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground. "We just had a pot of tea and some snacks, why is it so expensive?"

The shopkeeper said with a wry smile: "This is the price in our teahouse. Yours is already the lowest."

Tao Chunqi covered his chest with his hands and tremblingly took out silver from his pocket. In the end, he only managed to make up one or two taels of silver by adding a few pieces of silver to copper coins.

She originally wanted to show off in front of her brother and sister-in-law today, so she took one or two taels of silver with her, but in the end it was not even enough for a cup of tea.

She had no money left, so she could only choose to wash dishes in a teahouse.

She was busy until the evening, when all the guests had left. She finished washing all the dishes before leaving, dragging her aching body.

She didn't expect that there were so many plates and dishes in this teahouse.

She washed so many dishes that she never wanted to wash dishes again in her life.

When she got home, she found that Huang Xiaoman was no longer at home.

After asking, I found out that he was sent to the academy by Old Lady Huang in the afternoon.

Huang Erniu asked her why she came so late, and she cried and told him what happened today.

"What, mother knows?"

"Yes, after she messed things up like that, the prestige I had worked so hard to build up in my mother's family was gone again!"

She used to hate her natal family because they wanted to seize her money.

But now it’s not like that anymore. She feels that she has money now, and her husband’s family will have more and more money.

She can show off in front of her family.

Then she went back to her mother's family and gave her 20 kilograms of meat, which made her parents very happy.

She exaggerated and exaggerated the affairs of her husband's family, and her parents treated her as a guest of honor.

Not only did her brother make up with her, but even her brother and sister-in-law stood up to speak up for her.

When it's just lip service.

So, when her brother and sister-in-law proposed to let her nephew Tao Yaozu study in the school, she agreed without hesitation.

But the annual salary of five taels of silver made her feel embarrassed.

After all, the silver she earned these days was less than five taels.

Her parents, brother and sister-in-law gave her some bad advice.

So there was the scene where she pretended to let Huang Xiaoman study.

Huang Erniu thought for a moment and said, "Let's push our mother a little bit more today. She has been so kind to our family before, she will definitely agree to our request."

Tao Chunyi still looked worried, "But she seems to have become a different person during this period. Will she still help us?"

Huang Erniu looked disdainful and said, "I have been thinking about this question these days, and then I figured it out."

Tao Chunqi looked at him puzzledly.

"That's why. Mother sold Jingjing before, and then she found out that Jingjing was almost beaten to death by the Lin family. She felt guilty, so she was so mean to my eldest brother's family."

"Then why is she treating us so badly? Compared to before, it's like heaven and earth."

"You don't understand. I gave my love to them, so I can't share it with us. Now Jingjing is also dead, and my guilt has gradually faded. As long as we force her, she will be kind to us again!"

After hearing this, Tao Chunqi nodded repeatedly, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

It was as if all of Old Mrs. Huang’s money belonged to them.
